The big issue is the CAD tool layer. We need to add a major feature that allows users to define additional layers for drafting items.

Would it be possible on future versions to include Terminals as one of the layers to export to cad?  This way I can choose which layer to put it on.  It would help us to visualize the Body/Pins on top of the Land Pattern during Layout and DFM checks.
We would like to see this during DFM checks:

The 3D Model outline is used for IDF export and only creates a polygon with Height. No leads or pins.

I am reffering to the CAD output from Footprint Expert.  The 3D Model outline is an output, but does not seem to include the terminal.  I would like to be able to get the Model Outline and Termninals on one layer of CAD output.

Is the actual pin included with the 3D Model output?]]> Thu, 25 Oct 2012 11:48:58 +0000 https://www.PCBLibraries.com/forum/output-for-terminals_topic631_post2142.html#2142
